Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an exhaust gas purification filter.
  • the filter coated with a catalyst is so configured that a honeycombed structure having a multiplicity of cells makes up an exhaust gas purification filter of which the partitioning walls are coated with the catalyst.
  • the conventional exhaust gas purification filter as shown in Figs. 10 and 11, uses a honeycombed structure having cells 90 having alternate ends thereof closed by plugs 95. Specifically, as shown in Fig. 11, the cell end portions in the upstream end surface 91 are alternately closed by the plugs 95 in a checkerwork form, for example. On the downstream end surface 92, on the other hand, the end portions of the cells 90 having the upstream end portions thereof not closed by the plugs 95 are closed with the plugs 95, while the end portions of the cells 90 having the upstream end portions thereof closed with the plugs 95 are left open. Under this condition, the catalyst is carried on the partitioning walls 98.
  • this exhaust gas purification filter 9 makes it possible to trap the particulates on the partitioning walls when the exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine is passed therethrough, which particulates are burnt off, by a catalyst, with the heat of a high-temperature exhaust gas.
  • the particulates 88 flowing in the exhaust gas 8 and trapped on the exhaust gas purification filter 9 are not always burnt off at an appropriate time but may be steadily deposited on the partitioning walls 98, as shown in Fig. 12. As long as an exhaust gas 8 low in temperature is being emitted from the internal combustion engine, for example, the burning is not started even by the catalytic action but the particulates 88 only continue to be deposited. In such a case, the pressure loss caused when the exhaust gas 8 passes through a filter, i.e. an exhaust gas purification filter 9 is increased while, at the same time, posing the problem that the filter is eventually heated abnormally and cracked or melted by the combustion heat.
  • the present invention has been developed in view of the problem points of the prior art described above, and the object thereof is to provide an exhaust gas purification filter capable of suppressing the generation of excessive pressure loss and preventing the melting due to the deposited particulates.
  • an exhaust gas purification filter for trapping the particulates in the exhaust gas, wherein the pressure loss caused when the exhaust gas passes through the exhaust gas purification filter increases until the amount of the particulates deposited in the exhaust gas purification filter reaches a predetermined value, while the pressure loss is not substantially increased after the amount of the particulates deposited exceeds a predetermined value.
  • the exhaust gas purification filter according to this invention as described above, even in the case where the amount of the particulates deposited increases to such an extent that the pressure loss due to the exhaust gas passing through the filter is increased, the pressure loss is not substantially increased after the amount of the particulates deposited reaches a predetermined value. As a result, an excessive pressure loss can be prevented even in the case where the process for burning off the particulates deposited is carried out belatedly and the amount of the particulates deposited exceeds the predetermined value described above. In this way, the adverse effect that the increased pressure loss otherwise might have on the internal combustion engine, etc. can be suppressed.
  • an exhaust gas purification filter wherein the predetermined amount of the particulates deposited is preferably smaller than the amount which makes the partitioning wall melt due to the heat generated when burning the deposited particulates. Then, in the case where particulates exceeding a predetermined value are deposited, the trouble of the exhaust gas purification filter being melted can be reduced.
  • an exhaust gas purification filter of a honeycombed structure having a multiplicity of cells surrounded by partitioning walls, wherein at least some of the cells each have a plug at one of the end portions thereof, wherein at least some of the plugs to be arranged on the downstream side in the fluid path are partial plugs having an opening allowing the fluid to pass therethrough, and wherein the pressure loss caused when the fluid entering the cells passes through the partitioning walls is smaller than the pressure loss caused when the fluid passes through the partial plugs.
  • the exhaust gas purification filter according to this invention comprises partial plugs each having an opening on the downstream side of the cells. These partial plugs are related to the pressure loss as described above. In other words, the partial plugs are configured to have a larger passage resistance than the partitioning walls against the fluid.
  • the exhaust gas constituting a fluid entering the cells is not substantially passed through the openings, if any, of the partial plugs but is passed through the partitioning walls and discharged from the adjacent cells having no plugs.
  • the particulates in the exhaust gas are trapped by the partitioning walls and appropriately burnt off by the heat of the heater or by the action of the catalyst carried on the partitioning walls of the exhaust gas purification filter.
  • the filter is regenerated into the initial state so that the fluid again begins to flow through the partitioning walls to restart the trapping of the particulates.
  • an exhaust gas purification filter of a honeycombed structure wherein each of the end surfaces of the exhaust gas purification filter preferably includes the cells ends having a plug and the cell ends having no plug alternately arranged. This arrangement can readily establish a route along which the exhaust gas passes through the partitioning walls.
  • an exhaust gas purification filter of a honeycombed structure wherein all the plugs located on the upstream side of the honeycombed structure are preferably complete plugs capable of blocking the passage of the fluid entirely.
  • the fluid enters directly from the openings of the partial plugs, and the efficiency of trapping the particulates may be deteriorated.
  • an exhaust gas purification filter of a honeycombed structure wherein the opening rate of the partial plugs in terms of ((A - B)/A) x 100 is preferably in the range of 5 to 80 %, where B is the area of the opening of each partial plug and A is the area of the cell opening.
  • the plug opening rate is less than 5 %, the pressure loss caused when the fluid passes through the partial plugs is not increased greatly, while the amount of the fluid directly passing through the filter is increased, thereby probably reducing the efficiency of trapping the particulates.
  • the plug opening rate is more than 80 %, on the other hand, the modification of the complete plugs into the partial plugs may not exhibit a sufficient effect.
  • an exhaust gas purification filter of a honeycombed structure wherein the plugs located at the central portion of the downstream end surface of the exhaust gas purification filter are partial plugs, and the plugs located around the partial plugs are complete plugs for completely blocking the passage of the fluid.
  • the flow velocity of the exhaust gas constituting the fluid is higher at the portion nearer to the central portion, so that the pressure increase at the central portion is larger than at the portions surrounding the central portion.
  • an exhaust gas purification filter of a honeycombed structure wherein all the plugs located on the downstream end surface of the exhaust gas filter are the partial plugs. In this case, the excessive pressure increase can be sufficiently avoided regardless of the fluid flow rate distribution.
  • an exhaust gas purification filter of a honeycombed structure wherein the partial plugs preferably represent at least 30 % of all the plugs located on the downstream end surface of the exhaust gas purification filter. In the case where the partial plugs represent less than 30 %, the effect of preventing the excessive pressure increase described above may be reduced.
  • an exhaust gas purification filter of a honeycombed structure wherein that area of the downstream end surface of the exhaust gas purification filter which is located within the curved line connecting the middle points of the lines connecting the center and the outer periphery of the downstream end surface is defined as a central area, and the area located outside the particular curved line is defined as a outer peripheral area.
  • the partial plugs preferably represent a higher percentage of all the plugs in the central area than in the outer peripheral area.
  • the exhaust gas purification filter 1 has a honeycombed structure with a multiplicity of cells 10 each surrounded by partitioning walls 11.
  • Plugs 2, 3 are formed on one of the end portions of each cell 10. On each of the end surfaces 18, 19 of the exhaust gas purification filter 1, the cell end portions having the plugs 2, 3 and having no plugs are alternately arranged.
  • plugs to be arranged downstream in the fluid path are partial plugs 3 each having an opening 30 through which the fluid can flow.
  • honeycombed structure is so configured that the pressure loss caused when the fluid that has entered the cells 10 passes through the partitioning walls 11 is smaller than the pressure loss caused by the fluid passing through the partial plugs.
  • the exhaust gas purification filter 1 includes a cylindrical honeycombed structure comprised of cells 10 each having an internal space with a rectangular section.
  • the dimensions of the whole honeycombed structure include a diameter of 140 mm ⁇ and a length of 130 mm.
  • the cell size is 12 mil (300 meshes).
  • the cell end portion located on the downstream end surface 19 of the exhaust gas purification filter has cells with plugs 2, 3 and cells with no plug arranged in a checkerwork form.
  • most of the plugs located on the downstream end surface 19 are partial plugs 3 each having an opening 30, and the plugs, though small in percentage, arranged on the outer peripheral end portion are full-fledged plugs 2 having no opening.
  • Each of the partial plugs 3, as shown in Fig. 1, has the substantially circular opening 30 almost at the central portion thereof.
  • the partial plugs 3 have a plug opening rate of 5 to 80 % in terms of ((A - B)/A) x 100, where A is the opening area of the cell 10 and B is the area of the opening 30. Most of the partial plugs have a plug opening rate of about 70 %.
  • the partitioning walls 11 are formed with a multiplicity of pores to allow the exhaust gas to pass therethrough.
  • the pressure loss caused by the exhaust gas entering the cells 10 and passing through the partitioning walls is smaller than the pressure loss caused by the exhaust gas passing through the openings 30 of the cells 10.
  • the first step is to weigh a ceramic material and, after mixing and agitating it, to extrusion mold the ceramic material into a honeycombed structure using a molding machine.
  • the honeycombed mold thus produced is dried and sintered at about 1400 °C. As a result, an exhaust gas purification filter 1 free of plugs is obtained.
  • the plugs 2, 3 are arranged on the plugless end portions of the cells 10 of the exhaust gas purification filter 1.
  • a first slurry is for dipping the upstream end surface 18 of the exhaust gas purification filter 1, and is comparatively high in concentration.
  • the ceramic material described above makes up a main component of this slurry, which additionally contains 80 % water in terms of percentage per 100 % of the above-mentioned ceramic material.
  • a second slurry contains the above-mentioned ceramic material as a main component which additionally contains 150 % water in terms of percentage per 100 % of the above-mentioned ceramic material.
  • a resin film 72 is attached to the upstream end surface 18 and the downstream end surface 19.
  • the resin film 72 is a vinyl tape 0.1 mm thick.
  • a vessel 76 containing the first slurry 75 is prepared, and the upstream end portion 18 of the exhaust gas purification filter 1 is dipped in it. In this way, an appropriate amount of the first slurry 75 is allowed to enter by way of the through holes 720 of the resin film 72.
  • a vessel containing the second slurry is prepared, and in the same manner as shown in Fig. 4(d), the downstream end portion 19 of the exhaust gas purification filter is dipped in it. An appropriate amount of the second slurry is allowed to enter by way of the through holes 720 of the resin film 72.
  • the exhaust gas purification filter 1 is sintered at about 1400 °C, thereby burning off the resin film 72 while at the same time drying the two types of the slurry.
  • some of the cells in the shape of an incomplete rectangle located on the outer peripheral end portion of the downstream end surface 19 have a small opening area and have complete plugs 2.
  • the particulates in the exhaust gas are trapped in the partitioning walls 11 and appropriately burnt off by the heat of a heater or by the catalytic action.
  • This embodiment represent a case in which the shape of the openings 30 of the partial plugs 3, according to the first embodiment, is changed.
  • the partial plug 3 having a circular opening 30 as shown in Fig. 5(a) as in the first embodiment, the partial plug 3 having an elliptical opening 30 shown in Fig. 5(b), a barrel-shaped opening 30 shown in Fig. 5(c) or a rectangular opening 30 shown in Fig. 5(d) can be employed as required.
  • the openings 30 may be formed not at the central portion but at the peripheral portions. Which of these shapes is to be selected is dependent mainly on the fabrication method employed.
  • This embodiment represents another example of a method of arranging the partial plugs 3 of the exhaust gas purification filter 1 according to the first embodiment.
  • the slurry 77 similar to the first slurry for the first embodiment is prepared. As shown in Fig. 6, the slurry 77 is attached little by little on the inner surface of the cell end portion having the partial plug 3 thereby to reduce the size of the opening area gradually. After baking the structure, a partial plug having an opening can be formed.
  • Other methods that can be employed include a method in which the structure is baked after dipping it in the first slurry as in the first embodiment and then forming a hole with a thin bar-shaped jig before the drying process, or a method in which a hole is drilled out after baking.
  • Still another method consists in bonding a ceramic plate having openings to the portions corresponding to the openings on the cell end portion.
  • This embodiment represents a case in which the partial plugs are formed only in the area 300 of the central portion of the downstream end surface 19 of the exhaust gas purification filter 1 while the complete plugs are used for the peripheral area 200.
  • the other points are similar to those of the first embodiment.
  • This embodiment represents a case in which the exhaust gas purification filter 1 described in the first embodiment is used to measure the relation between the amount of the particulates deposited from the exhaust gas and the pressure loss of the exhaust gas. Specifically, a fluid having similar components to the exhaust gas containing the particulates is supplied through the exhaust gas purification filter 1 to measure the relation between the amount of the particulates deposited and the pressure loss.
  • Fig. 8 The result of measurement is shown in Fig. 8.
  • the abscissa represents the amount of particulates deposited and the ordinate the pressure loss.
  • the exhaust gas purification filter 1 As shown in Fig. 8, the exhaust gas purification filter 1 according to this embodiment has been found to have such a configuration that until the amount of particulates deposited in the exhaust gas purification filter 1 reaches a predetermined value S, the pressure loss caused by the passage of the exhaust gas increases with the deposited amount of the particulates, while after the deposited amount of particulates exceeds the predetermined value S, on the other hand, the pressure loss substantially ceases to increase.
  • This embodiment is also a modification of the fifth embodiment, and represents a case in which the cells in the area 300 of the central portion of the downstream end surface 19 of the exhaust gas purification filter 1 are filled up with plugs, while the cells in the surrounding area 200 are filled with partial plugs.
  • the other points are similar to those of the first embodiment.
  • This embodiment is a modification of the first embodiment and represents a case in which the arrangement of the plugs including the partial plugs which may be replaced with the complete plugs is changed.
